Adaptational Sympathy: He's beyond horrified at the realization that it was Mallory's grandchildren, not Mallory that he ended up burning alive. He's so broken by this that when confronted by Mallory, who in the comics brutally kills him, she actually feels some level of sympathy for the bastard.
Despite this she is, with the exception of Starlight, the least malicious super-powered individual seen so far in the series. She genuinely wants to save people even though her experiences have left her jaded and cynical, she at least tries to actually be heroic when possible. She has also shown to be more self-aware than the rest of her team, recognizing that she and the Seven are not true heroes. She also noticed Starlight's distress after her assault and offers some comfort. Adaptational Heroism: In the comics, Queen Maeve is mostly a self-destructive hedonist and doesn't care about anything heroic. In the show, she's unambiguously heroic, albeit riddled with character flaws that keep her from being a paragon. Maeve's introduced trying to stop bank robbers, and is overall the most heroic member of The Seven except for Starlight. She even tells Starlight how excited she was to become a real heroine when she was younger, until she started to give away pieces of herself. She also beats up Stormfront and risks her life to stop Homelander and Soldier Boy.
Not Afraid of You Anymore: Throughout the first and second seasons, Maeve was crushed under Homelander's controlling thumb and was often forced to compromise her principles to go along with his will. At the end of "What I Know", she reveals the footage she has of the Flight 37 disaster, threatening to leak the footage if Homelander doesn't stop his hunt against Starlight and The Boys.
Ignored Epiphany: As noted under Freudian Excuse, his hallucinatory vision quest does lead to him recognizing his predatory behaviour towards women and the roots of its cause. His attempts to actually cease this behaviour only goes as far as trying to boost his own self-esteem however, as the remainder of the season proves he's still as self-centered and narcissistic as he was when he started. Maeve brings Butcher more V-24 doses and asks what he’s going to do with them. Butcher offers Maeve a drink and she tells him she’s been sober for 4 months. She ends up drinking with him. Butcher tells Maeve that every single last one of them has got to go, referring to Supes. She agrees and they have rough sex. Kingpin in His Gym: Queen Maeve is shown easily defeating a number of burly men in her gym whom she's sparring with. Be playful and flirtatious: Maeve also has a playful and flirtatious side, so don't be afraid to have fun and flirt a little with those around you. World's Strongest Woman: Appears to be the physically strongest female supe, as demonstrated by her dismantling Stormfront in their brief 1 v 1 after Stormfront had just wiped the floor with the Boys, Kimiko, and Starlight at the same time. She can also outmuscle Noir, who's been an Implacable Man in the first two seasons. She even manages to overwhelm Homelander himself in hand-to-hand combat.Superhuman Speed: Maeve is able to achieve speeds that allow her run along walls of buildings, defying gravity for short periods of time. Running in this manner, she was easily able to overtake and pass a speeding armored vehicle. [6] Queen Maeve's sexual orientation in the show has been revealed to be bisexual. She has a girlfriend called Elena and previously dated Homelander, and had sex with Butcher. In " Nothing Like It in the World", Homelander outs Maeve as lesbian, but, in " We Gotta Go Now", Elena finally made it clear that Maeve is bisexual.
